Memorandum for Record

The following questions were submitted as a result of the Site Visit that was conducted on 29 Mar 16 as well as the Amendment that was posted on 19 Apr 16. Each question is accompanied by the answer.

Question 1. On drawing ES-506 the Landscaping General Notes show no reference to the drawings. Is there a quantification for each of the notes so accurate pricing can be provided?

Answer 1. There are no quantifications related the general notes on drawing ES-506. General note 3 has been revised by an amendment that requires shrubs to be replaced only if an existing shrub has been removed. No additional shrubs are required to be planted around above grade electrical equipment except when an existing shrub has been removed. This applies to any construction activity, including trenching, which impacts shrubs.

Question 2. The Amendment referred to our question, but did not answer it. We will need pricing to come from Time Warner and need their contact info. Can you please provide both?

Answer 2. The Time Warner Cable point of contact is Mr. Clay Rollins. His email address is clay.rollins@twcable.com and his phone number is 252-265-4170. The Contractor is required to obtain pricing info from Time Warner Cable.

Question 3. Referring to spec section 01 00 00 General 21. Additional requirement for licensed electricians for this project: the contractor shall provide and have on staff a minimum of five (5) licensed electricians for the complete duration of this project.

o The requirement for licensed electricians is not typical on a government project, is this required?

o Calling for five (5) licensed electricians for the duration of the project seems to mandate crew make up, is this required?

Answer 3. Specification section 01 00 00 General 21 correctly states a requirement that the contractor shall provide and have on staff a minimum of five (5) licensed electricians for the complete duration of this project. This is a mandatory requirement.
